Title: The Places Where Car Accidents Happen Most Frequently
1The Places Where Car Accidents Happen Most
Frequently
2 Parking lots are the number one cause of death
(in the United States). Every year, they take
thousands of lives and put hundreds of thousands
of people in the hospital. They can happen almost
anywhere all it takes is one moment, one simple
distraction and someones life could be changed
forever. However, some places are more dangerous
than others. Here is a list of common places
where car accidents happen more frequently.
3Parking Lots
- Even though they are used to park cars, parking
lots are very dangerous. There are several
reasons why they are the place with frequent car
accidents - There is always a large number of vehicles coming
in and out of the parking lot - There are many blind spots
- Parking (especially in reverse) is dangerous and
could result in both car and pedestrian accidents - Constant pedestrian movement
4 When driving around and through the parking lot,
you have to pay extra attention to other cars,
especially those driving in reverse. Watch out
for pedestrians, and always check your
corners. If you get hit or if you hit someone
while on a parking lot, call car accident
attorneys in Kansas City at Peddicord Townsend

(legally) and protect your best interests. If

the person responsible for causing the accident.
5Intersections
Every intersection is different, but they all
have one thing in common they are all dangerous
for both vehicles and pedestrians. The most
dangerous intersections are those near freeways,
as the drivers usually have little to no time to
slow down. Generally, there are always at least
20 cars at every intersection (minimum), and one
mistake could easily cause a multi-vehicle car
accident. Be on the lookout every time you are at
an intersection, and pay attention to your
surroundings and speeding vehicles.
6 Stop Signs
- Most accidents occur because one of the drivers
failed to see the stop sign. Pedestrians usually
tend to cross the street at the stop sign,
without paying attention to the oncoming cars.
They simply think that the driver will see the
sign and slow down, but in reality, this is not
always the case. There are hundreds of cases
where a driver (due to distraction or simply lack
of focus) failed to spot a stop sign and
continued to drive at a high speed, hitting a
pedestrian or another car . You do not want to be
the next victim. Pay attention when crossing the
street.
7Highways
- Most highways have one thing in common open
road and plenty of space for every vehicle.
However, this is not the case with freeways close
to a big city. These are usually packed with
thousands of vehicles in close vicinity. One
mistake, and the accident is inevitable.
8- Accidents mostly occur because of
- Speeding
- Tailgating
- Aggressive driving
- Distractions
- Lack of focus
- Fatigue and dizziness
- Road rage
